Alphorngruppe "Alpentraum" (German for "Group of Alphorns" and "Dream of the Alps") are amateur musicians who have come together because of their appreciation for and desire to play the ancient wind instrument. The group plays 12 foot long instruments pitched in the key of "F" which is capable of only the 16 notes in the Overtone Series. Their repertoire includes fanfares, marches, dances, peaceful calls to the mountains and even a few humorous numbers.
Their music, along with their traditional Folk Costumes, are a unique experience with old world European Flavor. They are an Oktoberfest favorite at events all over the Midwest and have even appeared at the Downtown Disney Oktoberfest in California.
Check the current Schedule for their next performance.
